Webserver

[Michael@Home]

Is it possible to get ASP running on the WL700gE? I guess I have to set up a virtual directory, but it is not a regular setup option. I saw the discussions about the firmware modding, and how can I get a virtual directory working? I'm not Linux-educated , so how can I edit the package succesfully on a windows machine? I have the GPL_WL700gE_1046.zip downloaded from Asus. By the way, for who didn't notice, the setup pages are ASP as well, so I presume that there must be running some ASP server...

The best way would be for you to install one of the custom firmware images - I would recommend kfurge's one - then you can set a webserver to run on startup (I believe its /apps/binthttpd on the router - which supports activescripting) If you get stuck, just post back here and I'm sure somebody will help you out

Thanks D3viant,

I'll check it out in time, first have to get a computer running on some linux, and then have to autodidact myself

If you want a quick and easy way to get a version of Linux running, without having necessarily to get a different PC, try getting a KNOPPIX CD (or DVD if you want a very complete system).

This CD or DVD does not require installation itself, and it will boot a stock-standard Windows PC to Linux (Debian Etch) without affecting the Windows install in any way.

All that is required is to download the .iso file and then use that as a CD(or DVD) image file to create the bootable CD(or DVD).

I can't get ASP to work with thttpd (or lighttpd), it just shows a list of files.

I start my server with
thttpd -dd /www/English -u root -p 8085 -i /var/run/thttpd.pid

I don't know if there are other parameters needed.
any ideas?

hmm I got the webserver to work now with:

httpd 8081 /www/English

but two things:

1. I cannot start the httpd server from rc.local but only when I login and type the command manually, how to fix this?

2. I cannot kill the original httpd process. It keeps starting over and over again. I would like to have another server on port 80
